Yes, yes, yes.
You look good... Oh no, you win. You're right about everything!
The reporters were eager to hear the details, but Xia Xiaolan didn't say it. Every reporter wanted to interview her, or even interview her exclusively. The TV reporter sent an invitation to her on the spot, hoping that she could last program.
Xia Xiaolan refused.
Why did she cooperate with these reporters?
It's these people who call her a ghost. Now they have to be enthusiastic about her for news gimmicks. Xia Xiaolan doesn't care about these people because she won. Today's trial process will be made public sooner or later. These people will take the initiative to wash her white for the news.
It's that simple.
The media have no sympathy. They report news and make news. They live on it!
But those who support her
Xia Xiaolan squeezed out of the circle of reporters and bowed to the supporters who had been waiting at the gate of the court all day:
"Thank you!"
"I have lived up to your trust. I won the lawsuit!"
"I will continue to work hard."
Cornell's classmates, Chinese students in New York and Chinese in Chinatown.
Is this Xia Xiaolan's victory alone?
No, this is everyone's victory!
Xia Xiaolan won the lawsuit and lived up to their trust and support. She is as excellent as everyone imagined. Even the New York court, which naturally favors Americans, ruled that she won the lawsuit!
"Won."
Cornell's students rushed up and surrounded Xia Xiaolan. To start their classic celebration mode, they lifted people up and threw them into the air. Xia Xiaolan was unable to stop them.
Anyway, in the end, it was not only Cornell's students who threw her away, but also Chinese students from New York, as well as Chinese people from Chinatown.
Xia Xiaolan's supporters fell into a carnival.
Contrary to them, of course, is Lisa's supporter.
Lisa lost?!
Everyone supported her so much, but she lost. She didn't explain to the supporters, so she hurried away by car.
Supporters want to doubt the injustice of justice.
But they are more aware than anyone. Here is the United States, the New York court. The result of the lawsuit between Americans and Americans is hard to say whether justice is fair or not. Sometimes losing and winning is not related to the truth. It depends on who lawyers are more awesome.
However, in a lawsuit between American citizens and foreigners, subconsciously, judges will first protect the interests of American citizens.
Unless there is really no way, the evidence is conclusive, the law and the feeling can only win the lawsuit against foreigners - with the design drawings in hand, Lisa's supporters are extremely embarrassed.
Lisa's hurried departure and Lisa's defeat made them feel cheated.
It doesn't seem to matter whose work the selected design is.
It may be Xia Xiaolan's.
It could be Lisa's.
Lisa's supporters, I don't know who took the lead, lost their brand and left quickly.
Others followed suit, lost their brands, tore their T-shirts with supporting words, and left with a disheartened face. Some people were probably too angry and swearing.
Instead of scolding Xia Xiaolan, their trust and emotion were hurt. Lisa's defeat and failure to explain made them feel stupid!
Xia Xiaolan doesn't care whether these people go or stay.
It's always a joy to win a lawsuit.
The court ruled in her favor and asked Lisa to compensate her for her economic loss of 50000 US dollars and compensation for reputation loss and spiritual loss of 200000 US dollars... This is very normal. It is impossible for the plaintiff to say as much as possible, and the court also has its own verification standards.
Eric believes that Lisa's occupation of her works led Xia Xiaolan to lose the AIA supernova architect award, resulting in a loss of at least $50000 here, as well as Xia Xiaolan's time and money delayed by the lawsuit, which calculated the economic loss compensation of $100000. However, the court cut it in half. After all, Lisa didn't destroy it, and Xia Xiaolan was only shortlisted for the AIA supernova architect selection.
I didn't win the prize.
No matter how talented and awesome you are, the award is not firmly there, waiting for Xia Xiaolan to pick it up.
The $200000 compensation for reputation loss and spiritual loss is also a lot.
In addition, Lisa has to bear the legal costs of the case.
The court's decision will be published in the newspaper, which Xia Xiaolan insisted.
If Lisa refuses to obey, will she appeal as lawyer miles said? Xia Xiaolan doesn't care, doesn't care, comes to play once, Lisa is just from being despised once to twice or three times!
Liu Fen watched her daughter being thrown up high. So many people cheered and celebrated, and her eyes were still slightly red.
"How nice..."
It's nice to win a lawsuit.
The people who testified for Xia Xiaolan didn't leave, except Harold.
Tina deeply despised Matthew: "you're so stupid that you admit you like her in court. What's in your mind?"
Tina wants to say, why can't you learn from Harold?
This may be the difference between a mature man and a young fool like Matthew. Even Tina can see that Harold likes Xia Xiaolan, but people can deny it without changing their face - Thinking of Harold and Tina's appointment with Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, she was also upset for a time.
Matthew blushed. "It's a mistake!"
Didn't you swear to tell the truth?
Who knows, suddenly ask him such a question.
Shit! What was in his mind at that time? Fortunately, he didn't lose the lawsuit, or he really made a big mistake!
But why did Raymond Dawson choose to tell the truth at the last minute?
Matthew didn't understand that either.
Today's trial has been wrestling. Matthew only knows that Xia Xiaolan won the lawsuit in the afternoon. But how did you win and why was it arranged like this? Ma Xiushen was in the game, but he didn't fully understand the inside story.
This is the result of discussion between Xia Xiaolan and Eric.
Is this the difference between IQ and big guy?
Matthew fell into deep self doubt.
……
The car drove off the block where the New York court was located.
There was silence in the car. Heidi didn't dare say anything. She was afraid that what she said was wrong and would provoke her father's anger.
After the trial, Mond said nothing and no one knew what he was thinking.
Or did he take the initiative to speak, but he didn't know whether he was explaining to Heidi or talking to himself:
"Do you know why I should tell the truth?"
"I made an enemy for myself, because I couldn't step on her at one time. She would resist in a fierce way."
"I despised the enemy too much. I did it without making a clear investigation."
If he really wants to deal with Xia Xiaolan, he should be more fully prepared. He thinks it's easy to cut off her future in the construction circle, but he didn't expect that the other party has so many supporters and the background is not limited to the construction circle - Mrs. Wilson invited him not only to pay Xia Xiaolan, but also to Harold Wilson.
Mond is just an architect. He doesn't want to get involved in the disputes of these rich people at all.
He chose the chess piece by mistake. Lisa's foundation is weak and she is so vulnerable.
He also misjudged his opponent, who was not only a gifted Chinese student.
If he doesn't make a correct "judgment" in court, he says he can't confirm which of the two originals is painted first and which is painted later, and that he can't confirm whose collection of works is better - with Xia Xiaolan's action force now, she can bring together all the winners of the Pritzker Construction Award so far for re appraisal.
At that time, the situation will be even worse for mund. Not everyone likes him, compared with his peers and his famous architects!
